Who were his parents?
« on: Sunday 23 August 09 07:04 BST (UK) »
Hello

I have one Edward Pentecost born 25 Dec 1800, Peckham, Surrey, and no parents.
Would anyone have details of any baptisms or birth for this man?
He married 1830 to Sarah Amery in Christchurch, Southwark.

Hi

The Camberwell baptism parish registers are not indexed by the IGI. They are deposited at the London Metropolitan Archives. The then hamlet of Peckham was part of Camberwell.

1851 census HO107 1582 folio
4 Winchester? Place Camberwell Surrey
Edward Pentecost Head Married 48 Dairyman Peckham Surrey
Sarah Pentecost Wife Married 45 Climany Devon
William Pentecost Son 16 Brixton Surrey
Phillip Pentecost Son 14 Brixton Surrey
Richard Pentecost Son 12 Brixton Surrey

Also in Camberwell on the 1851 census

1851 census HO107 1582 folio ?
1 Bath Street Camberwell Surrey
William T Pentecost 48 Head Married Retired Milkman East Grinstead Sussex
Sophia Pentecost 50 Wife Married Bristol 
Annie Pentecost 18 Daughter City of London
Isaac Pentecost 16  Son Camberwell Surrey
Sarah Pentecost 78 Mother Widow East Grinstead Sussex


WILLIAM PENTECOST
Christening:  03 MAY 1802   East Grinstead, Sussex
Father:  EDWARD PENTECOST 
Mother:  SARAH 

William Pentecost
Sophia Cox 
Marriage:  10 FEB 1827   St Mary'S Church, Lambeth, Surrey
 

1841 census HO107 1052/2 folio 30
Bath Street Camberwell
William Pentecost 40 Milkman 
Sophia Pentecost 45 
William Pentecost 12 
Sarah Pentecost 10 
Isaac Pentecost 8 
George Pentecost 6 
all born Surrey

Edward and his family in 1841 were at census reference HO107 1051/5 folio 52

entry already supplied on this topic post searching for the origins of Edward's wife

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,394653.0.html

These were the only two Pentecost families in Camberwell in 1841 and both were milkmen.


William Pentecost born in East Grinstead Sussex (though he gives Surrey on the 1841 census - the born in or out of the county question on the 1841 census can be answered very unreliably) had other siblings baptised in East Grinstead


MARY ANN PENTICOAST
Christening:  02 JUN 1800   East Grinstead, Sussex
Father:  EWD PENTICOAST 
Mother:  SARAH 

ISAAC PENTECOST

Father:  EDWARD PENTECOST 
Mother:  SARAH     

HENRY PENTECOST

Father:  EDWARD PENTECOST 
Mother:  SARAH

MARTHA PENTICOAST 
Christening:  23 FEB 1812   East Grinstead, Sussex
Father:  EDWD PENTICOAST   
Mother:  SARAH 

and a brother Edward who would be about the right age for Edward Pentecost who on the 1851 census stated his birthplace as Peckham

EDWARD PENTICOST

Thank you so much.  Will have to spend a bit of time sorting them out.
There were two Pentecost families that came to New Zealand and I wonder if this is the same William Thomas Pentecost which has shown on many records and paper articles here? 
It has been a question between two of us how William and Thomas were related, so many thanks for finding all this information.

Kind regards

William Thomas Pentecost was my great great great grandfather and Edward Pentecost was his brother.  My cousin just updated our family tree, had no idea they were milkmen or moved to NZ, how facinating!  Their father was Edward1767-1842.  He married Sarah Gilbert in 1794.  He had 2 brothers Abraham b. 1800 and Thomas 1802.  Their parents were Richard and Ann about 1740 in East Grinstead

Well hello cousin.
I do not have info on the parents of Edward 1767, would you mind sharing?
Yes quite a large family line in New Zealand, so I can fill you in with them.
They even have a Street named after them in Rangiora, Canterbury, New Zealand.
